Businesses are collecting more data than ever before. But is bigger always better? Many companies are starting to question whether massive datasets and complex infrastructure are truly delivering results or just adding unnecessary costs and complications. How can you make sure your data strategy is aligned with your actual needs? What if focusing on smaller, more manageable datasets could improve your efficiency and save resources, all while delivering the same insights?
Ryan Boyd is the Co-Founder & VP, Marketing + DevRel at MotherDuck. Ryan started his career as a software engineer, but since has led DevRel teams for 15+ years at Google, Databricks and Neo4j, where he developed and executed numerous marketing and DevRel programs. Prior to MotherDuck, Ryan worked at Databricks and focussed the team on building an online community during the pandemic, helping to organize the content and experience for an online Data + AI Summit, establishing a regular cadence of video and blog content, launching the Databricks Beacons ambassador program, improving the time to an “aha” moment in the online trial and launching a University Alliance program to help professors teach the latest in data science, machine learning and data engineering.
In the episode, Richie and Ryan explore data growth and computation, the data 1%, the small data movement, data storage and usage, the shift to local and hybrid computing, modern data tools, the challenges of big data, transactional vs analytical databases, SQL language enhancements, simple and ergonomic data solutions and much more.
